It was over 34-fucking-degrees Celsius in Inuvik this week.

That's insane.

For those unfamiliar with Canadian geography, Inuvik is 200km from the Arctic Circle. (And that's 200km *north* of it.)

(If you've watched *The Terror* season 1, it's the same latitude as where they get stuck.)

Inuvik summer temps are typically in the teens.

10 years ago the high for August was around 20 °C, although it did hit 25 °C in August 1974.
